Can teachers get auto insurance discounts? What is the best provider to go with?

I have Geico right now and pay over 1000 dollars a year. I looked online at the Teacher’s Insurance Plan and my quote was just over 400 per year. Has anyone heard of this provider, or do you use another?

I know Farmers offers a 5% discount in my state for teachers.

Teacher’s Insurance Plan is an agency, or a plan, NOT an insurance company.
Check to see that the coverage matches, apples to apples, for the same policy term. That’s a HUGE discount – I think something is off.
Go to an independent insurance agent and see what they can offer – but make sure you’re comparing the same coverage.
There are a few companies that market directly to teaches: Do a search for Horace Mann Ins. Other companies offer discounts to teachers.
Your quote sounds good, but I’d still recommend you shop around a bit. An independent agent in your area should be able to quote you through several solid companies.
Good luck.
Call a local independent agent in your area and ask if they have Mercury Insurance. Mercury offers a HUGE discount for educators and scientists.
You can normally find an independent agent by looking for the PIA or Big I (Trusted Choice) logos.
Good luck and I hope this helps!
